RE: IPv6 Summarization ...

The IPV6 addresses are written in HEX.
First step is to write each segment into full HEX digits, so you get
2001:141:1:12::/64 - 2001:0141:0001:0012:: and
2001:141:1:25::/64 - 2001:0141:0001:0025::

The first 3 segments are equal or the 48 bits(16x3), so will concentrate on
4th segment, which are

0012 and
0025

The first 2 hex digits are the same, that is another 8 bits and we are left
with
12 and
25

Which are in binary as:
0001 0010 and
0010 0101
And 2 bits are same, so that's another 2 bits

If add all the common bits now 48 + 8 + 2 = 58

Hi Experts,
   How do you summarize between 2001:141:1:12::/64 and 2001:141:1:25::/64
? I don't seem to be able to get the answer 2001:141:1::/58.

   Is the summarization the same as in ipv4 but of course each octet has a
value of 16 ? Coz i am doing it as in ipv4 but it does not come
to 2001:141:1::/58 ....

Pls advice on the way to do this ...

Thank you,

Cheers,

ccie1101.
